In addition to the actively listed job postings, many groups are open to applications from prospective graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and more. Please visit individual lab pages for more details.
The Assistant Research Administrator provides high-level strategic coordination and administrative leadership for the Coon Laboratory in collaboration with the Metabolism Theme at the Morgridge Institute. This role will provide support to the Metabolism Theme and associated research groups as needed. This position manages day-to-day laboratory activities for the Coon group, oversees comprehensive research budgets, and facilitates collaborative research to advance the group’s mission.
The Poss group utilize zebrafish, and, occasionally, mice as model systems to study regeneration of tissues like heart muscle, kidney, spinal cord, and appendages. The primary focus of this position is regeneration research with duties involving (but not limited to) molecular biology, histology, surgeries, microinjection, and imaging and analysis, with opportunities for co-authorships on published manuscripts. There also will be some animal husbandry and general lab responsibilities. Training will be provided by the laboratory. We welcome ambitious applicants with enthusiasm for regenerative biology and for working with research zebrafish.
The Morgridge Institute for Research, in partnership with the University of Wisconsin-Madison, seeks a joint tenure track assistant professor to lead a vibrant metabolism-focused research program. We are particularly interested in interdisciplinary and collaborative-minded scientists passionate about mechanistic understanding of metabolism and metabolic regulation, its connections with core biological processes, and innovative approaches to study metabolism.
The Philanthropic Giving Manager will serve as a key frontline fundraiser for the Morgridge Institute for Research (Morgridge). As a member of the Development Team, the Philanthropic Giving Manager will be responsible for building and fostering relationships with individual donors and giving prospects, in pursuit of our mission to serve society through impactful biomedical discoveries and spark curiosity for science in our everyday lives.
The Fan lab at Morgridge Institute for Research and University of Wisconsin-Madison is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to study the metabolism of macrophages and neutrophils. The successful candidate will join a dynamic, interdisciplinary team investigating the dynamic metabolic regulation during immune cell activation and how metabolic pathways influence immune cell function.
The Research Cyberinfrastructure Manager will provide technical oversight for the development team within the Research Computing group, overseeing a team including Research Software Engineers (RSEs) working on large-scale data management problems within the institute’s and national cyberinfrastructure as part of the Center for High Throughput Computing (CHTC).
The Research Software Engineer (RSE) will work to bring modern software engineering techniques and approaches to research projects at the institute as part of long-running engagements and collaborations between scientists.
